What's interesting to me is that Korean Spas seem to be gaining in popularity, particularly with non-Asian men. I think that if there was more of a "bath" element to the baths it'd be more popular. I'd love to go to a bath with soaking tubs and steam/sauna rooms, nice shower facilities. i love Club Orlando with their outdoor shower and pool etc. I feel like overall that's not a side of the business they focus on. definitely not in Philly, its mainly rooms an showers in 2 spots. sad.

Sorry no male strip clubs here. Toronto is the closest. Club Marcella was the gay club to go to but they recently moved to a new location and looking at their website now I don't think they are marketing themselves as a gay club anymore:

I can't even recommend any local providers or masseurs. I pretty much hire visitors.
I finally made my second trip to Montreal since 2016 and after the pandemic. I arrived on the 1st of April when Canada no longer require a pre-departure covid test.
Still jetlagged from my 21-hour flight, I unpacked at my AirBnB, I showered and I headed straight to Campus. I paid $2 to check in my coat plus $6 to get in. It was busy with about 30% female in the audience. I counted 8 very sexy dancers on stage, who did two sets of dance. First, when they come out wearing jeans and partially removing them to show either their arses or top of their undies. Second, when they come out with a raging hard on. I had my eyes on a very muscly guy about 6'4 who reminded me of the porn star Ricky Sinz. He didn't seem to be interested in getting any business from men as he was mostly flirting with the female audience. Then the audience gasp when this guy Gabriel did his second set. I said to myself, 'Imma get this guy in the backroom'...but he was snatched by someone else as soon as he got off the stage. Not my lucky night, I thought, so I went to the bar and bought another beer. By the way, I felt that the Mexican-looking bartender didn't like me. I've waved and waved at him but he was deliberately ignoring me. I got his attention eventually and got my second beer. Gave him $20 and told him to keep the change, you silly bitch! I sat on a stool near where the pool table is, not hoping to get a lap dance that night. I intended to finish my drink then call it a night. Then I felt a tap on my back. I turned and it is, Gabriel!. We said our 'how-do-you-dos' and then headed in the back. He did not disappoint. My hands were all over his body while he was dry-kissing me on my neck, forehead and face. I asked if I can suck his dick but he said no because he's straight and then showed me pics of his gf on his phone as proof, I guess.
The following night I went to Stockbar paying $4 entrance + $2 to check in my coat. The guy complimented my scarf so I gave him $2 tip. The club is not as busy as Campus with only 4 dancers and about 20 patrons. I immediately noticed Ronnie when I entered the club. I got my drink and sat down and have observed him going from one patron to another. They all must have said no to him because he would leave and go to the next person. My heart was beating fast when he approached the guy on the table next to me. I was hoping that the guy would say no too so I would be next. The guy did say no but Ronnie skipped me and went to the room where the dancers stay when they're not dancing instead.
Another guy, Adam, approached me, who's friendly and also handsome like Ronnie. But you know that feeling when you had your eyes on someone/something that you're trying to get but could not get? I told Adam that I'm interested but I will get back to him later. He said 'ok, cool' and then he left.
A second guy (Jay) approached me. Nice looking but rude and arrogant. When I gave him the same reply I gave to Adam, he left abruptly. (Later in the evening he would approach me again and when I said no, he rudely told me, 'what else are you doing here?'. I've had my lap dance already and bought 4 beers at $9 each plus tips, so I told him matter-of-factly that I am not interested in him. That must have hurt his feelings but I won't let anyone talk to me like that).
Then I saw Ronnie again fresh from giving someone a good time in the back. I stared at him trying to get his attention but another guy grabbed him and they both disappeared in the back. I decided to play the poker machine while waiting for him. I put in $20 and lost; I put in another $20 and won $200!. I collected it and Adam saw it, and he joked that my winning would pay for 10 songs in the back. I liked his care-free attitude and I think he's really cute so I said okay.
As we were choosing which room to use, I caught a glimpse of Ronnie's jeans on the floor next to his tennis shoes under the closed curtain. I can only imagine what was going on behind it and it made me jealous. Thankfully Adam was very sexy and gave me an excellent session. I didn't give him all my winnings though as I'm saving it for Ronnie next time.
But the next time didn't happen because I left that night when Jay annoyed me. Also the club was closed Mondays and Tuesdays and I left Montreal for New York on Wednesday so I was really saddened that I didn't meet Ronnie. BTW Ronnie on the Stockbar website is different from today. He is hunkier and has a better hair-do.
I was hoping to meet Frank or Ryan in Stockbar but I didn't see any of them. I must have gone the wrong night (Saturday).
The Village and the rest of Montreal look like they're still recovering from the pandemic. I found The Village a bit rough and dirty compared to six years ago. There's a lot of junkies along Ste-Catherine. Most businesses are either closed permanently or partially open. The Underground City is dead. Masks are required on buses and trains and inside the train station. I remember being very excited the first time I visited in 2016 but I didn't have the same feeling this time.
Anyway, the rest of the city may still be trying to get back on its feet but at least the strip clubs are back in full swing to give us joy and happiness we craved after two years!
